Photoshopped

Posted By on April 27, 2011

Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain… —Proverbs 31:30:

In the 1980s, John Knoll and his brother Thomas began experimenting with a computer program to manipulate images. Software companies thought they were crazy, because photographers didn’t use computers at that time. Initially the brothers called their program Display, then Imaginator, and finally they settled on Photoshop®. Today Photoshop® is used by amateurs at home and professionals in business around the world. A San Jose Mercury News article noted its place in popular language. When something looks too good to be true, people say, “It must have been Photoshopped.”

Recently, one of my grandchildren photoshopped a photo of herself to alter her appearance. What she did was give an impression that wasn’t real. Hollywood does it all the time.

Photoshop® may have it’s place in some areas. But nothing can replace a person’s natural beauty of a radiant countenance that reflects the joy of the Lord.
